IbanezIceman Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 Yeah it looks pretty mean, (and cool) Would make for some tedious cutting work though.. :-) I have always preferred "different" body styles. Get so tired of seeing "everyone" using the same old, boring, cooke-cutter Tele, Strat, SG, LP, Jem bodies. It's nice with a change, and I hope you go further with your project. Would love to see that guitar come to reality. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goth_fiend Posted February 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 well i am starting it in july, getting a carvin neck thru blank and putting either alder or basswood wings on it. i already have the original version at full scale drawing (1:1) so its not going to be a problem to redesign it to the new version.

The REAL Nordic God Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 well im in school right now and the network cant open your plans but it sounds like something really hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveq Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 It looks like a lot of the changes were done to increase stability/strength by getting rid of the thinner areas. I liked your original headstock better although it does have some thin/weak areas - but those are the areas that make it really mean looking in my opinion. I wonder if you used something like Wenge (or other) for the headstock if that would help prevent the tips from breaking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbanezIceman Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 ..and I would make sure you pick a suitable type of wood for the intricate design. Some are more likely to chip than others, but you also want something that won't make the cutting too hard on your own part. Evil guitars are cool.
